Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Handpresse zur Konfektionierung von Flachbandkabeln in Steckverbindern gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a hand press for the assembly of ribbon cables in connectors according to the preamble of claim 1.

Die genaue Position des Bandkabels zum Steckverbinder ist bei der Bandkabelkonfektionierung sehr wichtig, insbesondere bei Endverbindern soll das Kabel bündig mit dem Steckverbinder abschließen. Das Bandkabel darf also nicht zuviel überstehen, um eine falsche Kontaktierung mit anderen Bauelementen zu vermeiden. Andererseits muß es genügend tief in den Steckverbinder geschoben sein, um eine sichere Kontaktierung des Kabels mit den Schneidklemmanschlüssen zu gewährleisten.The exact position of the ribbon cable to the connector is very important in ribbon cable assembly, especially with end connectors, the cable should be flush with the connector. The ribbon cable must not withstand too much to avoid incorrect contacting with other components. On the other hand, it must be pushed deep enough into the connector to ensure reliable contacting of the cable with the insulation displacement connections.

Bekannte Handpressen als Kabelanschlußwerkzeug sind meist mit einem Schiebetisch versehen, worauf ein sogenannter Presseinsatz verschiebbar gelagert ist. Der Presseinsatz wird dabei zuerst in eine erste Position zur Montage des Steckverbinders und des Kabels geschoben. Anschließend wird der Presseinsatz zusammen mit dem in den Steckverbinder geschobenen Flachbandkabel in eine zweite Position unter dem Preßstempel zum Verpressen geschoben.Known hand presses as cable connection tools are usually provided with a sliding table, on which a so-called press insert is slidably mounted. The press insert is first pushed into a first position for mounting the connector and the cable. The press insert is then pushed together with the ribbon cable pushed into the connector into a second position under the press ram for pressing.

Bei einer bekannten Ausführungsform des Presseinsatzes liegt der Steckverbinder mit einer Seite an einem Endanschlag an. Von der anderen Seite des Steckverbinders her wird das Bandkabel in den Steckverbinder geschoben. Es ist hierbei nicht eindeutig festzustellen, ob das Bandkabel durch den Steckverbinder hindurch bis zum Endanschlag durchgeschoben ist.In a known embodiment of the press insert, the connector bears on one side against an end stop. The ribbon cable is pushed into the connector from the other side of the connector. It cannot be clearly determined whether the ribbon cable is pushed through the connector to the end stop.

Bei einer weiteren bekannten Handpresse wird das Bandkabel absichtlich soweit durch den Steckverbinder durchgeschoben, daß es am anderen Ende ca. 1 cm aus dem Steckverbinder herausragt. Anschließend wird das Bandkabel manuell mit einem Schieber zurückgeschoben, bis es korrekt positioniert ist. Dieses Zurückschieben erfordert einen zusätzlichen Arbeitsgang, und das Zurückschieben ist bei breiten Bandkabeln auch nicht einfach zu bewerkstelligen.In another known hand press, the ribbon cable is intentionally pushed so far through the connector that it protrudes about 1 cm from the connector at the other end. The ribbon cable is then pushed back manually with a slider until it is correctly positioned. This pushing back requires an additional operation, and pushing back is not easy to do with wide ribbon cables.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Kabelanschlußwerkzeug der eingangs genannten Art derart auszubilden, daß diese Nachteile vermieden werden.The invention has for its object to provide a cable connection tool of the type mentioned in such a way that these disadvantages are avoided.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die im Patentanspruch 1 angegebenen Merkmale gelöst.This object is achieved by the features specified in claim 1.

Mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Kabelanschlußwerkzeug wird nach dem Durchstecken des Bandkabels durch den Steckverbinder ohne einen zusätzlichen Arbeitsgang durch das Positionieren des Steckerverbinders unter dem Preßstempel gleichzeitig das Bandkabel im Steckverbinder in die richtige Position gebracht.With the cable connection tool according to the invention, after the ribbon cable has been pushed through the plug connector, the ribbon cable in the plug connector is brought into the correct position without an additional operation by positioning the plug connector under the ram.

FIG 2
in plan view the hand press according to the innovation with a sliding table in a first position and
FIG 3
in side view and
FIG 4

Die in den Figuren 1 bis 4 dargestellte Handpresse weist einen Schiebetisch 4 auf, der aus einer ersten Position (siehe FIG 2) in eine zweite Position (siehe FIG 4) unter einen Preßstempel 10 bewegbar ist. Hierzu ist der Schiebetisch 4 verschiebbar auf einer Grundplatte 5 gelagert. Zur Führung weist die Grundplatte 5 eine Führungsnut 8 auf, in der eine am Schiebetisch 4 befestigte Führungsschiene 9 geführt wird. Die Bewegungsrichtung des Schiebetisches 4 liegt dabei parallel zur Längsachse 101 eines Preßstempels 10, der oberhalb der Grundplatte 5 an einer nicht dargestellten Hubeinrichtung befestigt ist.The hand press shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 has a sliding table 4 which can be moved from a first position (see FIG. 2) to a second position (see FIG. 4) under a press ram 10. For this purpose, the sliding table 4 is slidably mounted on a base plate 5. For guidance, the base plate 5 has a guide groove 8, in which a guide rail 9 fastened to the sliding table 4 is guided. The direction of movement of the sliding table 4 is parallel to the longitudinal axis 101 of a press ram 10, which is attached above the base plate 5 to a lifting device, not shown.

Auf dem Schiebetisch 4 ist ein Presseinsatz 3 in einer Richtung verschiebbar gelagert. Zur Führung des Presseinsatzes 3 ist an diesem ebenfalls eine Führungsschiene 16 befestigt, die in einer im Schiebetisch 4 angeordneten Führungsnut 15 geführt wird. Die Bewegungsrichtung des Presseinsatzes 3 relativ zum Schiebetisch 4 ist senkrecht zur Bewegungsrichtung des Schiebetisches 4 relativ zur Grundplatte 5.On the sliding table 4, a press insert 3 is slidably mounted in one direction. To guide the press insert 3, a guide rail 16 is also fastened to the latter, which is guided in a guide groove 15 arranged in the sliding table 4. The direction of movement of the press insert 3 relative to the sliding table 4 is perpendicular to the direction of movement of the sliding table 4 relative to the base plate 5.

Anstelle der Führungsschienen 9 bzw. 16 können am Schiebetisch 4 bzw. am Presseinsatz 3 auch zwei oder mehrere Führungszapfen angeordnet sein, die in den entsprechenden Führungsnuten 8 bzw. 15 geführt werden.Instead of the guide rails 9 or 16, two or more guide pins can also be arranged on the sliding table 4 or on the press insert 3, which are guided in the corresponding guide grooves 8 or 15.

Der Presseinsatz 3 weist eine Steckverbinderaufnahme 6 auf, in der ein Steckverbinder 2 positioniert werden kann. Die Längsachsen 61, 101 von Steckverbinderaufnahme 6 und Preßstempel 10 sind parallel. Beim verschieben des Schiebetisches 4 mit dem Presseinsatz 3 in die zweite Position kommt dann die Steckverbinderaufnahme 6 mit dem Steckverbinder 2 in eine Position unter dem Preßstempel 10.The press insert 3 has a connector receptacle 6 in which a connector 2 can be positioned. The longitudinal axes 61, 101 of connector receptacle 6 and press ram 10 are parallel. When the sliding table 4 with the press insert 3 is moved into the second position, the connector receptacle 6 with the connector 2 then comes into a position under the press ram 10.

Der Schiebetisch 4 weist an dem zum Steckverbinder 2 weisenden Bereich einen Kabel-Endanschlag 7 auf. Dieser Kabel-Endanschlag 7 ist derart ausgebildet, daß er in der zweiten Position des Schiebetisches 4 unter dem Preßstempel 10 direkt am Steckverbinder 2 anliegt.The sliding table 4 has a cable end stop 7 on the area facing the plug connector 2. This cable end stop 7 is designed such that it bears directly on the connector 2 in the second position of the sliding table 4 under the ram 10.

In der ersten Position ist in Draufsicht (siehe Fig.2) die Längsachse 61 der Steckverbinderaufnahme 6 seitlich nach rechts gegenüber der Längsachse 101 des Preßstempels 10 verschoben. Hierdurch ist ein Zwischenraum 18 zwischen dem Kabel-Endanschlag 7 und dem in der Steckverbinderaufnahme 6 gelagerten Steckverbinder 2 gebildet. In Originalgröße beträgt dieser Zwischenraum 18 ca.1 cm.In the first position, in plan view (see FIG. 2), the longitudinal axis 61 of the connector receptacle 6 is shifted laterally to the right relative to the longitudinal axis 101 of the press ram 10. As a result, a space 18 is formed between the cable end stop 7 and the connector 2 mounted in the connector receptacle 6. In the original size, this space 18 is about 1 cm.

In der zweiten Position sind in Draufsicht (siehe Fig.4) die beiden Längsachsen 61 und 101 in der gleichen Position. Der Presseinatz 3 wird derart bewegt, daß die Steckverbinderaufnahme 6 direkt unter dem Preßstempel 10 positioniert wird. Der Presseinsatz 3 wird dabei in Richtung auf den Kabel-Endanschlag 7 hin bewegt. Der Zwischenraum 18 ist verschwunden und der Steckverbinder 2 liegt direkt am Kabel-Endanschlag 7 an.In the second position, the two longitudinal axes 61 and 101 are in the same position in a top view (see FIG. 4). The press insert 3 is moved such that the connector receptacle 6 is positioned directly under the press ram 10. The press insert 3 is moved in the direction of the cable end stop 7. The gap 18 has disappeared and the plug connector 2 is in direct contact with the cable end stop 7.

In der Grundplatte 5 ist an der zum Kabel-Endanschlag 7 gegenüberliegenden Seite eine weitere Führungsnut 12 vorgesehen. In dieser Führungsnut 12 wird ein Führungszapfen 13 geführt, der über einen Verbindungssteg 14 mit dem Presseinsatz 3 verbunden ist. Die weitere Führungsnut 12 weist zwischen der ersten und der zweiten Position des Schiebetisches 4 einen Versatz 17 auf, durch den beim Verschieben des Schiebetisches 4 von der ersten in die zweite Position unter dem Preßstempel 10 der Presseinsatz 3 senkrecht zu dieser Bewegungsrichtung verschoben wird. Durch diese Verschiebung wird die Steckverbinderaufnahme 6 mit dem Steckverbinder 2 direkt unter den Preßstempel 10 gebracht (siehe Fig.4).A further guide groove 12 is provided in the base plate 5 on the side opposite the cable end stop 7. A guide pin 13 is guided in this guide groove 12 and is connected to the press insert 3 via a connecting web 14. The further guide groove 12 has an offset 17 between the first and the second position of the sliding table 4, by means of which the pressing insert 3 is displaced perpendicular to this direction of movement when the sliding table 4 is moved from the first to the second position under the press ram 10. As a result of this displacement, the connector receptacle 6 with the connector 2 is brought directly under the press ram 10 (see FIG. 4).

Zum Verpressen eines Bandkabels 1 im Steckverbinder 2 wird dieses Bandkabel 1 soweit durch den Steckverbinder 2 hindurchgeschoben, daß auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite ein überstehendes Ende 11 (siehe FIG 1) mit ca. 1 cm Länge in Originalgröße entsteht. Dieses überstehende Ende 11 steht dann in der ersten Position des Schiebetisches 4 am Kabel-Endanschlag 7 an und füllt den Zwischenraum 18 aus. Für die Bedienperson ist an dem überstehenden Ende 11 das korrekte Einlegen des Bandkabels 1 in den Steckverbinder 2 leicht zu kontrollieren.To crimp a ribbon cable 1 in the connector 2, this ribbon cable 1 is pushed so far through the connector 2 that on the opposite side a protruding end 11 (see FIG. 1) with a length of approximately 1 cm is produced in its original size. This protruding end 11 is then in the first position of the sliding table 4 on the cable end stop 7 and fills the space 18. The correct insertion of the ribbon cable 1 into the connector 2 is easy to check for the operator at the protruding end 11.

Beim Verschieben des Schiebetisches in die zweite Position bewegt sich der Presseinsatz 3 aufgrund des Versatzes 17 in der weiteren Führungsnut 12 in Richtung auf den Kabel-Endanschlag 7 zu. Hierdurch wird auch der in der Steckverbinderaufnahme 6 fixierte Steckverbinder 2 gegen den Kabel-Endanschlag 7 bewegt, wodurch das überstehende Ende 11 des Bandkabels 1 durch den Steckverbinder 2 hindurch wieder zurückgedrückt wird.When the sliding table is moved into the second position, the press insert 3 moves in the direction of the cable end stop 7 due to the offset 17 in the further guide groove 12. As a result, the connector 2 fixed in the connector receptacle 6 is also moved against the cable end stop 7, as a result of which the protruding end 11 of the ribbon cable 1 is pushed back again through the connector 2.

In der zweiten Position (siehe FIG 3) liegt der Steckverbinder 2 am Kabel-Endanschlag 7 an, und das Bandkabel 1 ist exakt im Steckverbinder 2 positioniert. Nach dem Verpressen weist der Steckverbinder 2 an der dem Flachbandkabel 1 gegenüberliegenden Seite kein überstehendes Kabel auf.In the second position (see FIG. 3), the connector 2 lies against the cable end stop 7, and the ribbon cable 1 is positioned exactly in the connector 2. After pressing, the connector 2 has no protruding cable on the side opposite the ribbon cable 1.
